By George! What a Vernacular Villa!

Built in 1866, this stone villa is possibly one of Camperdown's oldest dwellings. Not only are you purchasing a unique piece of vernacular architecture, but you are also inheriting a slice of Camperdown's history. Buyers have their eyes on the Camperdown market specifically to try and secure a unique period home, and here we offer you just that. Constructed primarily of rough-hewn basalt sourced in the immediate vicinity this home is truly a rare find. But don't feel you have to live like they did in the 19th Century! Thanks to sympathetic renovations throughout including the kitchen and bathroom you have a comfortable home of modern-day standards ready for you to move into and enjoy. The property maintains much of its original floorplan with 2 bedrooms in front of the home dissected by a central ornate hallway giving direct access to a separate living room and study or 4th bedroom. The timber kitchen with a gas cooktop and electric oven showcases the stonework of which the home is built. Externally you have 1195m2 of land to call your own that features a large garage and carport and leaves plenty of room to utilise as desired.
Built-in a prominent position in its day, that certainly still rings true, being centrally located, close to schools, healthcare and Camperdown's vibrant shopping precinct. How do you price such a historic home? Why not call the team today to arrange an inspection and decide for yourself!
